I raised money to help sponsor the first Cambodian Bloggers conference and raised a lot of the money via Twitter as Shel Israel noted in his book, Twitterville. I also used Twitter to get 300 t-shirts donated to bring over for the conference. In 2007, I won the Yahoo for Good Contest, winning $50,000 for the Sharing Foundation.

I first encountered the term when I read Shel Israel's , Twitterville (pp110-111). Molson launched a campaign to replace the public funding with private sector donations, starting with its own $20K donation. The Molson Team spread the word , using Twitter to urge a wider audience to attend and donate.
